United Kingdomvery Nice Hotel, er travelled with a dog, and it got everything what was nessesery: pillow, bowls, very cute, thank you
LuxembourgAn amazing hotel, the room was awesome, the bed was so comfy! My partner and I are considering purchasing it via their boutique, the breakfest was extremely good, lots of choices. The staff were excellent, always going above and beyond to help or meet your needs, I didn't have any diet restrictions but on 2-3 occasions I overheard staff bringing guests amended meals to such a high finish to ensure they had food. The location was really good, it's in the middle of everything, the train station was a 10 minute walk, what felt like the center of town/shops was also only 10 minutes away, a lot of the tourist pieces were close by and they offer bike rental if walking isn't your thing.

NetherlandsThe Sofitel was a beautiful hotel, right in the centre of Amsterdam. The hotel is a 2 minute walk from Dam Square and is surrounded by Cafe's, restaurants and all the shopping streets. The staff at the hotel were amazing helping order taxis and ensuring our stay was perfect. It is in the best location for everything you want to do in Amsterdam. The breakfast had a huge variety, beautifully laid out and the quality of food was excellent.
United KingdomExcellent location, staff were very helpful, room was nice
United KingdomThe welcome at the check-in was very good. They remembered that I said I like whiskey during the check-in, and next day they left a note in my room said they could arrange a whiskey tasting for me at the bar. It was very thoughtful. Presentation and variety at breakfast was very good. We chose the hot items from the menu and they served them to our table. We took the cold from the open buffet ourselves. We had lunch at the Oriole restaurant. Presentation and taste were very good. Room cleaning was fine, we did not feel uneasy. The location is very central, we walked easly to most places.
TurkeyExcellent, support for special occasion, the new room and hotel in general
